I have bought such a antenna but the signal strentgh is miserable. With the htc headphone I get a much better signal strentgh.....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gongoscho:
Same with 4 contact ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Heart1010:
This is what I've bought (Amazon-Link)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gongoscho:

Volume 50% lower with hypergps active

Hi beemer :)

First of all : many thanks for your hard work ! it's amazing to be able to use tmc without external receiver on our touch HD.

With Beta 7, there's only one problem for me : the volume which is 50% lower when i'm using hypergps (it was the same with all previous beta versions), because sound is heard from both speaker and headphones :( (in hypergps config, it told him to use Speaker as output)

Is there a workaround or do you have a solution ready for beta 8 perhaps ? :D:D

Missing audiooutput

Hello Beemer,

first,great work, I love your application.

I installed the Beta7 in the afternoon and tried it on my way home. Unfortunately I get no output to the headset:confused:. Switching to headset or speaker is still the same the output comes to the speaker and this with any program which uses the audiooutput. I´ve reinstalled Beta5.

Regards

I've bought myself an adapter for my Raphael:

click here

With this one I don't even have to connect a headset to receive TMC-signal. And it charges the battery too!

Hopefully you can use such an adapter for your polaris too :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] salemh:
Confirm, this is the best solution (adapter) so far.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] entertain70:
Finally it works on my Touch Cruise and igo8 but I cant't hear any sound from the speaker (sound output is set to speaker)! The sound only comes over the headphones!

HTC Touch Pro 2 (Rhodium)

Hi,

is there a solution for the HTC Touch Pro 2 (Rhodium)? Even with Royaltek-Prot I can not read TMC-Data on COM9. Tested with Beta 5 and Beta 7... :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Orbitter2:
no signal indication and no TMC on my Polaris

I've tested all of the beta apps, but only beta-5 seems to support iGo on my Polaris (O2 branded: Orbit2, also known as TouchCruise).

My problem with Beta-6: iGo lost the TMC-HW every 10 seconds, but TMC received.

My problem with Beta-7: Very very bad reception of TMC signal. The channels are detected (I can recognize it, because the frequencies of the radiostations are selected), but no signal indication (green bar) shown. iGo testing for TMC, did't fount a signal and step to the next station. This loop never ends! Many station detected, but no station seems to send TMC. But I know they send the signal.

So I allready use Beta-5. :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jerommeke:
HyperGPS freezes

I updated my Raphael to ROMeOS 1.982 today and installed HyperGPS beta 5 again. But it freezes constantly when I'm trying to test it. Tried the beta 7 too, but same issues.

Anyone have an idea? It used to work perfect with the ROMeOS version I used before. Tried different things but with no succes :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] StarMonkee:
Beta 7 is the first time I've used this app quite a lot (usually I just play about with it as my drive to work is nearly always uneventful). I wanted to see how good TMC actually is, so I decided to use it every time I got in the car.

My device is a diamond with windows mobile 6.1, and I'm using iGo 8.3.

I've noticed that I get TMC data fairly qiuckly when I first load everything up, ie within 2 minutes I get TMC messages coming in. Then I've found that once I get an initial bunch of messages (usually 1-2 pages), iGo loses the TMC signal and never seems to regain it unless I stop the driver and iGo and start everything again. This has happened every time I've tried it, which is probably 15-20 attempts over the last few days.

Has anyone else noticed this? In the iGo settings, it doesn't even have the RDS info for the TMC channel any more and the signal bar is always completely grey. I know that there should be more pages of data because even if it is regional data I live fairly close to London and back when I was using beta 5 I would easily get over 15 pages of messages.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ed33:
Works perfectly for me, i set it to my local classic fm also using the gps switch. I have messages within 30 seconds. I even had to set it to manual reroute because it was to eager to reroute me.

Thanks great app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] speedme:
Hi Jerommeke,

Do you have the direct link where I can buy this adapter ?

I was looking for a fixed solution to have TMC signal and to charge my Diamond at the same time. This looks like the best one so far...

Thanks

Have a polaris and beta 7 worked for me.

It is the only one that works on my polaris indeed.

have just installed this rom.. maybe the rom maybe beta 7 maybe both..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Polluxus:
Well I did that but after start of Igo (with the switch program) it doesn't start with my preferred frequency when auto scan is ticked. Either Igo always starts from the beginning of the frequency range or the driver initializes to late so Igo can't pick up my frequency and starts scanning.

I wouldn't know if this is an Igo or Hypergps bug.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Fire69:
I have been using HyperGPS for some months now without problems.

Had to stick to B5 because B6 did not work very well for me.

Now I have flashed to Miri's 6.5 REV3, and I can't get the driver to load.

When I try it through HGPSClient, I get:

"Cannot load driver. Try installing beemercert.cab or another COM port".

I tried B5 and B7, both with the same result...

Any idea what could be causing this?

Can I enable logging in some way? Enabling logging in HGPSClient does not work, because it start logging when the driver is loaded, but the driver does not load. :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] beemerTPPC:
Matbe the com port that you used to use is not free in the new rom. Try another one.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Fire69:

Beta 8 Uploaded

What is new in Beta 8:

-Full GNS protocol support. Tested under iGO and Navigon

GNS needs TMC+GPS option to be selected althought if it is not, HyperGPS will send fake GPS sentences.

-Less CPU consumption and lower memory footprint

-Optimized test program: Now RSSI is correctly shown under Royaltek mode, unused buttons are hidden under GNS mode and all the behaviour has been polished.

-RDS and TMC indicator in test program.

-Log mode redesigned to make more useful and readable logs.

-Removed fake RDS message under Royaltek mode. Not necessary with correct timmings.

-Soved an issue with block ratio not always sent.

For Beta 9, I plan to concentrate in general bug fixes, not device specific ones.

Please report the bugs you find.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gongoscho:

I made a fast test with GNS and it seems to work, but i noticed that the radio signal is intermittent. It change from low to max continuosly with both Navigon and IGO8.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dickerhund:
Noticed that, too (with Navigon). Also, Navigon seems to lose connection to GPS from time to time (GPS symbol goes away in Navigon, Setting is "GPS + TMC Data" in HyperGPS)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] L_o_k_i:
beta8 test results with iGO, test program and GNSTester

Hi,

*GNS (TMC + GPS data):

- block ratio shows 100% or ~10%. With the headset disconnected it shows ~10% and iGO says "TMC present". This shouldn't work like that I think

- TMC messages is now received as fast as in Royaltek mode

- speaker sound still to low

- autotune does not work: iGO does not stop at radio broadcasting TMC. In fact, the block ratio shows 0% when arriving on a station with TMC. But on all the other stations I have at least ~10% all the time. When I disabled autotune or when iGO goes from 108MHz to 87.5MHz, I had for 1 second a "TMC hardware not found" message

- in autotune mode, iGO does not show the name of the station tuned. It does in Royatek mode!

- no RDS and TMC indicator in test program

- when tuning in test program I have sometime "..>" instead of the frequency. Send window shows: FF 79 96 01 79 0D 0A. If I tune up, I still have the same message in send window

- GNSTester does not receive TMC messages

-

*GNS (TMC data):

- same as above, except for the "..>" problem

-

*Royaltek (TMC + GNS data):

- everything seems to be fine. Only block ratio is acting weird: there is a delay between the station tuned and the indication of block ratio

- TMC and RDS indicator, RSSI are OK in test program

-

*Roayltek (TMC data):

- same as above

-

No FM Radio after use of iGO 8 with b7 on TD2

When I use b7 with iGO8, after I terminated iGO, I cannot use the Manila FM-Radio app anymore on my Touch Diamond2. I know the driver has to be unloaded, but if I wait for 5 minutes, the FM app still says "unexpected error", like the driver hasn't been unloaded. When I check with HyperGPS, the driver is unloaded. Enabling and disabling the driver with HyperGPS does not bring the FM app to life again. To use the FM app, I have to shut down the phone and restart, or soft reset. With b5, everything works well, I can switch multiple times between iGO8 and the FM app without any trouble. I used GPS Switch in both cases for autostart and -termination of the driver. :confused:

Keep GPS on port 4 and TMC on port 9

@Beemer

- when logging, sometimes I have 2 files (HyperGPS.log and HyperGPSBack.log). And sometimes I cannot open them. They are locked by another process.

- In Royaltek mode, iGO cannot detect the TMC device if the headset is not connected. It's OK in GNS mode.

I tried HyperGPS Beta 8 on an Omnia i910 (after completely removing OmniaTMC Beta 2 and doing a hard reset). In Test mode, both GNS and Royaltek protocols show received data for TMC+GPS, hex for GNS and ASCII for Royaltek. Using the Royaltek driver in HGPSClient, iGo8 (8.3.2.90500) cannot detect TMC hardware at all. Using the GNS driver in HGPSClient, iGo8 initially detects TMC hardware, but then cycles quickly (several times per second) back and forth between the TMC Station Settings tuning screen (stuck on last frequency sent from HyperGPS "Test" screen) and the TMC Settings screen (saying no tmc hardware found). Anything else I should try or logs I should capture? Already tried different COM ports with same result. Should I try the GPS_Switch or HGPS_Switch programs mentioned previously, and where are they? Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] L_o_k_i:

HyperGPS is not compatible with Omnia, but only with HTC devices because it's based on GFMAPI from flywhc (see supported devices here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=497977). Use OmniaTMC (from modaco) instead!

Slowing down the gps rate can't be the solution. 3 seconds is a long time: 200km/h => 3 secs: 166m:)

Have a look at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3937859&postcount=13. They go the other direction to speed up reaction and reducing lag.

When I installed Beta8, the first test in house (no gps?), the TMC reception was great. All tests later where not good (10% <-> 100%).
